I Hate the Blues

I HATE THE BLUES
WELL, I CAN'T STAND THOSE CATS WHO SING THE BLUES
THE PLAY THE SAME OLD SONG ABOUT HOW DOES IT FEEL TO LOOSE, ABOUT WASTING TIME, DRINKIN' WINE
AND SOME PAIR OF ALLIGATOR SHOES
NO I CAN'T STAND YOU, WHEN YOU'RE SITTIN IN MY CAR WHEN YOU SAY OUR BAND IS GREAT, WE ARE GONNA GO FAR IN YOUR HILLYBILLY STYLE, I COULDNT WALK A MILE
I IN YOUR ALI BABA NASHVILLE TIE
COME ON MY FRIEND, WE ARE DOIN SO FINE
LET THE MAGIC START FOR ONE MORE TIME
THE PIANO BOY PLAYS WRONG BUT I DON'T MIND THERE'S A LOVELY LADY SMILING AT ME NEXT TO THE BAR I HOPE MY WRINKLES WON'T BE SEEN IN THE DARK
WE'VE GOT A THREE HOURS SETLIST, ABOUT ONE HUNDRED SONGS
LET'S PLAY THE THREE YOU KNOW FIRST, AND THEN THE NINETY-SEVEN YOU DON'T HERE COMES SWINDLIN' TIME, A TIP JAR FOR DIMES
AND ELEVEN PINTS TO CUT YOU LOOSE
WELL, I CAN'T STAND THOSE CATS WHO STEAL THE BLUES
THEY MAKE A MILLION DOLLAR ROBBIN ON SOMEONE ELSE'S TUNES
I GOT A TICKET TO RIDE, CLOSING TIMES, EVERYDAY I HAVE THE BLUES
OK MY FRIEND, THE GIG WAS FINE
WE HAD THE JOB DONE ONE MORE TIME
THE PIANO BOY PLAYED WRONG QUIET ALL THE TIME THERE'S A LOVELY LADY SMILING AT ME NEXT TO THE DOOR JUST THE TIME TO STICK THE GEAR IN MY CAR AND..
THERE WAS A LOVELY LADY SMILING, NOW SHE'S WELL OUT OF SIGHT OH GOD! SHE'S FADED INTO THE NIGHT
I FINALLY CAN SEE HER, THERE SHE'S TALKING TO YOU
LADIES LOVE THOSE ALLIGATOR SHOES
